Calculating Empires
A Genealogy of Technology and Power Since 1500
Kate Crawford and Vladan Joler

The concept “artificial intelligence” is a loaded terminology, situated in a
very specific territory and sparking a very particular imaginary of possible futures.
Silicon Valley and Hollywood’s fast and metallic futures, which are incompatible
with values, desires, and dreams of decolonial, antiracist, and transfeminist visions
of being on this planet. We seek to explore and expose the limitations of applying the
term AI to feminist technological practices and propose alternative epistemologies
and approaches to develop decolonial feminist tech. This paper is an epistemologi-
cal, historical, political, and creative exercise to expose the harmful Western-cente-
red logics and imaginaries that are guiding tech development towards technologies
of war, extractivism and domination and seek alternative terminologies that serve
5
us as tools to help envision systems guided by social-environmental justice and
feminist principles, technologies of life and del buen vivir. To achieve such goal, we
travel in the history of western science fiction to untangle colonial and patriarchal
imaginaries that are guiding mainstream tech development; start to decolonize our
imaginaries by departing from a map of everything that is left behind when we use
the terminology “artificial intelligence”, and from a brief immersion in biology and
ecology studies, focused on mycology, soil studies, and a symbiotic approach to
evolution, using radical imagination and speculative narratives, we propose con-
cepts to inspire tech development that can be regenerative and in symbiosis with
the Earth, all its beings, temporalities and rhythms.

A programming language whose virtual machine is Olympus. Instead of registers, we have a set of gods, each of which will do specific things for us if we ask them in the right way. Here is a Hello, World program:
CONCEPT
We command machines as if they were are servants, and yet they often do not do what we want. Olympus is a new programming language which better reflects the actual power dynamic of programmer and machine.
When we bark orders at digital assistants (our Alexas and Siris), it does not bring out the best in us. We become masters to insolent machines that continually misunderstand us; they are personified, usually as female service workers, which makes our position as masters all the more uncomfortable. Were we to write code in this way, it would make things even worse, given the "complete and unambiguous explanation" required in code; the micro-managing necessary enhances the sense of condescension.
But what if we reversed that power dynamic? When we pray, we also make requests-- often equally petty -- only we do so with great solemnity and respect. The language Hellenic adopts this approach. To avoid any sense of micromanaging the gods, we make requests in small pieces, each accompnied with appropriate praise.
Zeus and Athena are great strategists, useful for command flow; Mnemosyne is the mistress of memory; we leave garbage collection to Hades. Zeus needs more praise than Athena, who is less likely to hold a grudge. Piss off one of the gods by asking for the unreasonable, and they might not follow any of our commands from that point on.
SPARQL Anything is an open source tool that lets you use SPARQL to query data in a long list of popular formats: XML, JSON, CSV, HTML, Excel, Text, Binary, EXIF, File System, Zip/Tar, Markdown, YAML, Bibtex, DOCx, and PPTx. It has a lot of great documentation and features, but I’ll start here with an example of it in action.
"Les personnes dyslexiques ou ayant des difficultés de lecture sont fréquemment citées quand on parle d’écriture inclusive : pourtant, les difficultés viendraient surtout d’un manque d’habitude envers ces usages de la langue, il y a besoin d’un temps d’adaptation. Pour les personnes aveugles ou mal voyantes également, ce sont les systèmes de lecture orale des textes qui devraient être modifiés afin de pouvoir correctement lire des propos inclusifs", poursuit Laurence Rosier.

i was about to spend good money on a logic analyzer when i found this https://github.com/dotcypress/ula and flashed a spare pi pico with it, added in a level shifter, and now i'm getting pretty good data on gameboy memory timing
